CAROLINVANS ARE HONORED IN ARMY Additional Names of Those Awarded The Distinguished Service Cross The Kews and Observer Bureau, -603 District National Bank Bid Br FRANK W. LEWIS. (Special Leased Wire.) Washington, July 23. The commander-in-chief of the American Ex peditionary Forces, in the name of President Wilson has awarded the Dis tinguished Serviee Cross to a number pi Tar Heels as follows: , Corporal Beth E. Perry, - (deceased) company K, 119th infantry. For extra ordinary heroism in action near Belli- court, France, September 29, 1918. When a portion of his company was threatened with a counter-attack and he had seen one runner killed in an attempt to reach them from company headquarters with orders to fall back, he volunteered for the dangerous mis sion. While crossing an open field under heavy fire, he was mortally wounded. Next of kin: Mtsi Mary . Perry (mother), Okisko, N. C. Major Bobcrt J. Lamb, 119th infan try. For extraordinary heroism in ac tion near Bcllieourt, France, September 29, 1918. In command, of a company, he, with two other men, rushed a machine gun post, which was holding up the advance, killing the German crew. Later, separated from part of hit command owing to a dense stnoks rn. nm fnnnri himsnlf with A f men in front of three German machine I Influenced by some direct information iti dominions or colonies, I am bound to say that .such .. a result is not ex cluded by the present language of the covenant in Article X, and Article IV; nor does the language of Article XV necessarily exclude from the tribunal to recommend settlement of a dispute a home government wheYe one of its dominions or toloniea is a party, nor doea it necessarily exclude a dominion or colony from such tribunal where the home government may be a party. I have no -doubt that both of these exclusions were intended by the fram ert of the covenant. THIRD. The third .interpretation ia an exact legal construction of the effect of Article X, and I do not see how any of the signatory powers can object to tt. Domestic Policies. " FOURTH. The fourth interpretation is a mere statement of international law and the proper construction of the seventh paragraph of Article XV, which is only inserted to satisfy criticism of that paragraph based on the unfounded assumption that some tribunal of the league will be found which will de clare issues in respect to immigration, or the tariff to be something other than a question of domestic policy. Definition of Monroe Doctrine. FIFTH The fifth interpretation de fines the Monroe Doctrine. As the time has come for its world recognition, the time has also come for its definition, and I believe the language uspd cor rectly states what we have a right to claim it to be and all Hint we have tho right to claim it to be. These interpretations, it seems to me, reasonably answer all the reasonable or sincere criticisms made against the league except as they are met by the single reservation as to Article X, which is suggested at the close. 10-Year Limit to Article X. Mr. Root proposed that the duration or Article A be limited to nve years gun nests. Leading the attack, he cap tured the enemy positions, with twenty five prisoners. Home address: Mrs. James W. Lamb (mother), Fayettiville, N. C. Corporal Hugh B. Martin, machine gun company, 119th infantry. For extraordinary heroism in action near Busigny, France, October 10, 1918. When a battalion of Infantry was held op by heavy machine gun fire, he rushed his section forward to a position three hundred yards in advance of our front lines, engaged and silenced the enemy, and allowed a renewal of the advance. He displayed marked per sonal bravery under terrific enemy fire. Home address: J. B. Martin (brother), Wiliiamston, N. C. Private Alexis M. McLain, company K, 119th infantry. For extraordinary heroism in action near St. Souplct, France, October 10, 1918. After ono soldier had been killed and another wounded in the attempt, he carried a message under heavy fire to company headquarters, bringing up reinforce ments, which saved his platoon. Home address: Mrs. 8arah V. McLain (mother), Hiddenite, N. C. Corporal Burt T. Forbes, Company I, 119th infantry. For extraordinary heroism in aetion near Ypres, Belgium, September 1, 191S. While his pntrol was acting as a flank guard, with or ders not to fire unless absolutely neces sary, he detected an enemy patrol of eight men approaching and starting to set a machine gun. Crawling forward alone, he charged the enemy patrol, and single-handed killed three Ger mans and routed the other five. Ilome address: Stephen B. Forbes (father), Old Trap, X. C. Sergeant Dewey 8. Brown, Company F, 120th infantry. For extraordinary heroism in aetion near Bellicourt, France, September 29, 191 S. Wounded twice st tho start of an advance, he remained in command of his platoon, carrying it through to a position near its objective, when he was wounded a third time and forced to retire. His personal courage was an inspiration to the men under him. Home address: Mrs . William K. Graham (sister), Mount Vila, X. C. Carolinians In Washington. J. V. Whitfield and Mrs. Whitfield, of Clinton, left Washington today for New York where they will sail for Mon tevideo, to which place Mr. Whitfield has been Appointed consul. F. L. Seely, of Asheville, manager of the Grove Park Inn, is in Wash ington. J. O. Carr and Mr. Lippitt, of Wil mington, are in the city. A marriage license was issued tnday to Zero W. Xichols, of Brevard, X. C. and Miss Otillie A. Opit, of Philadel phia, Pa. Taft Submits Program Treaty Interpretations (Contimcd from Page One.) that I have as to the attitude of France in respect to Article, X, I am confident that the period of the five years is not long enough for this stabilization and does not offer the security which France eagerly seeks under the league or by supplemental treaty. 1 think, therefore, that the cautionary influence of the league would be greatly strengthened by lengthening this period from five to ten years. The nations of the league can be sure that should the league work well, the United States will withdraw tho not.co and continue to bear its part of the world's burden in securing the bencfi's of the league if those benefits are ap parent after ten years trial. Sincerely vours, WILLIAM H. TAFT." will at once prompt opposition to them. I understand yon to say that, at a later time an open statement by me to the public, that I approved these interpreta tions and reservations as a proper basis of compromise might be useful in se curing the acquiescence of some Re publicans and the needed support of the Democrats. Predicts Deadlock. I am ready at anytime, when it is thought to be useful, to make such a statement, but I don't wish to make it when it will merely create confusion worse confounded. I have opened com. municatton on the subject with the three Senators virtue votes I hope may de feat radical reservations in the nature of amendments likely to come from the majority in the Foreign Relations com mittee. These recommendations have to be voted for by Borah in order to bring them out of the' committee if, as I hope, McCumber will vote against them. After their defeat, which I hope may be accomplished by forty-five Democratic votes, with three Republi cans against them then the deadlock will be on. The Democrats and the Republicans can defeat amendments but they can not ratify the treaty. Sixteen more Republicans are needed. Need of 16 Republicans. We may be sure there are that num ber of Republicans who are friendly to the League of Nations anil are anxious to ratify tha treaty and relieve the Re publican party from the burden of de feating it. We ran be sure also that the Democrats who favor the treaty will be anxious to have a ratification, if not without reservations, then with reser vation that do not destroy it -effect. Situation May Reejaire Concession. m it tee until the sirustlon more fully develops and issues are more clearly drawn. Weald Save Party From the "Burden." I am sending a .copy of this letter to Mr. Hillcs, with the hope that you and hi may confer ia furtherance of our common object which is that of secur ing a ratification of the treaty a free ing of the Republican party from the burden of defeating the treaty, and the removal of its issues from the next political campaign As always, sincerely, yours, W. H. TAFT. SENATE NEW SCENE OF PROHIBITION (Coatlaaee from Psge One.) ''has co-operated with the government to prevent the brewer., from trying the issue whether 2.75 per cent beer is in toxicating before either a jude or a jury. The government and tha A!i Salcon League nave prevented trial of cases In New York, and the govern ment, by carefully framing indict ments so as to avoid charging the de fendant made intoxicating beer, has prevented a trial of that question of fact before a jury."

Referring to your telephone to Er.e this Sunday morning, I understand you to agree with me that it would be unwise at this time to bring my suggestions to the attention of Mr. Root, Senator Lodge or of the Republicans ranged in general opposition to the ratification, of the league wihout reservations. What 1 fear is that if these reserva tions come to knowledge of such op ponents of the League their authorship ttation may require concession to se cure ratification and I suggest what I have already sent to you, a copy of i which I enclose, as something th.it will secure a useful League of Xations. I Where His Reservations Come In. I It is at such time, I conceive, when ; suggestions of the character I have i made can perhaps be useful. My view, I therefore is that you would better keep our correspondence confidential until j the issue is thus clearly drawn. Then ' it may be possible for me to be useful with tho Democrats, because they know I am in favor of ratification of the I treaty without reservation or amend ment, if possible, and thus stand with them. Understand me, I have no desire to apepar as the author of a compro mise, and I am entirely willing and anxious to suppress my relation, if by so doins it will facilitate a satisfactory ratification of the treaty.

I am glad to know from you that you npprove the compromise I have sug gested, and that you believe in keeping ; the matter confidential until a later i time when it may be useful to act.

Chairman Gronna, of the Agriculture Soap should be used very carefully, If yvu want to keep your hair looking its best. Most soaps and prepared sham poos cootaiu too much, alkali.

One or two teaspoonfuls will cleanse the hnir and scalp thoroughly. Simply moisteu the hair with water and rub it in. It makes an abundance of rich, creamy lather, which rinses out easily, removing every particle of dust, dirt, dandruff and excessive il.

Coming now to specific interpreta tions, it seems to me that the first achieves all ;hat the draftsmen of the withdrawal clause intended and as thus Interpreted relieves that clause from a possitile construction by which the actual withdrawal on two years notice might be greatly hindered through the claims of the other members of the league. Too Much British? SECOND. The second interpretation has to do with the presence in the league as members, Of self-governing dominions or colonies of a home gov ernment, also a member.
